PER CURIAM:
William C. McKinnedy appeals the district courts order
dismissing his 42 U.S.C. 1983 (2000) complaint.

The district

court referred this case to a magistrate judge pursuant to 28

U.S.C. 636(b)(1)(B) (2000).

The magistrate judge recommended

that relief be denied and advised McKinnedy that failure to file

timely objections to this recommendation could waive appellate
review of a district court order based upon the recommendation.
Despite this warning, McKinnedy failed to object to the magistrate
judges recommendation.
The timely filing of specific objections to a magistrate
judges recommendation is necessary to preserve appellate review of
the substance of that recommendation when the parties have been
warned that failure to object will waive appellate review.

See

Wright v. Collins, 766 F.2d 841, 845-46 (4th Cir. 1985); see also
Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140 (1985). McKinnedy has waived appellate
review by failing to file objections after receiving proper notice.
Accordingly, we affirm the district courts judgment
dismissing McKinnedys claims.

We deny McKinnedys Motion for a

Time Enlargement and/or Motion for Preliminary Injunction.

We

dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions
are adequately presented in the materials before the court and
argument would not aid the decisional process.

AFFIRMED
